Rental property or Airbnb
Executive is almost always enough. Tenants judge the bathroom, the kitchen and the windows, and those are fully renewed. The floors are restored, which keeps the cost down without showing in the result.
Renovation packages
Home renovation packages: what each package includes
Executive, Superior and Deluxe side by side, by category of work.
MECHA offers three full-renovation packages: Executive from 700 €/m², Superior from 850 €/m² and Deluxe from 1,150 €/m². All three include new plumbing and electrical installations, replacement of all windows, kitchen, bathroom, painting and a three-year warranty. The difference is not the number of tasks but three specific points: whether the floors are replaced, which heating system is installed, and which materials are used in the kitchen and bathroom. Below you can see exactly what each package includes, by category of work, as well as what none of them covers.

Calculate the cost The essentials
Where the three packages really differ
All three packages share the same base: new plumbing and electrical, new windows, kitchen and bathroom, supervision by an engineer and a 3-year warranty. The choice comes down to three points.
01
The floors
Executive restores the existing floors. If they are in good condition, you save on one of the biggest cost items. If not, Executive is not the right choice.
02
The heating
Executive keeps the existing heating system and pipework and only replaces the radiators. Superior adds an individual gas boiler and a new single-pipe network. Deluxe replaces the whole approach with a heat pump and underfloor heating, and adds insulation to the building envelope.
03
Kitchen and bathroom
Laminate and tiles in the first two, Corian in the third. Surface-mounted taps in Executive, concealed taps in the other two.

Demolition and debris removal
Demolition is the first stage of every full renovation and sets how deep the project goes. All three packages remove the bathroom, kitchen, doors and windows. Superior and Deluxe add the removal of floors and walls, which is what makes a new layout possible.

Floors
Floors are the first big difference between the three packages. Executive restores the existing floors rather than replacing them. Superior lays new tiles throughout, Deluxe engineered wood flooring. Balcony floors are tiled in all three.

Kitchen
Kitchen units are Italian in all three packages, with sink, tap and under-cabinet lighting. The length of the kitchen depends on the size of the home. The difference is the worktop: Executive and Superior have a laminate worktop with a tiled splashback, Deluxe a Corian worktop and splashback.

Bathroom and WC

Doors, wardrobes and windows
All exterior windows are replaced with certified EUROPA thermal-break aluminium, whatever the package. Hinged bedroom wardrobes are included in all packages. For doors, Executive and Superior have laminate, Deluxe lacquer or veneer and a high-security armoured entrance door.

Heating, cooling and insulation
This is where the biggest cost difference between the packages lies. Executive keeps the existing heating system and pipework and only replaces the radiators with new panel radiators. Superior adds an individual gas boiler, a single-pipe network with manifolds and air conditioning. Deluxe moves to a Daikin Monoblock heat pump with underfloor heating and insulation of the home.

What no package includes
The price does not include furniture and linens, appliances (we connect them but do not supply them) and light fittings, or moving and storing your belongings while the works last.
Choosing
Which package suits whom
A home to live in
Superior is the most popular choice. The floors are replaced, a wall can come down to open the kitchen to the living room, and independent gas heating changes your bills from the first year.
A high-specification property
Deluxe makes sense when the energy upgrade is a goal, not a side effect. A heat pump, underfloor heating and envelope insulation work as a system. Separately, none of the three performs as well.
Made to measure
You can build your own package
The three packages are a starting point, not a fixed menu. We add or remove tasks and tailor the quote to your property. A home with new windows, for example, does not need to pay for replacing them.

Frequently asked questions about the renovation packages
Which renovation package is the most affordable?
Executive, from 700 €/m². It costs less because it restores the existing floors and keeps the heating system, replacing only the radiators.
Is the kitchen included in the price?
Yes. All three packages include Italian kitchen units, a sink with tap and under-cabinet lighting. The worktop is laminate in Executive and Superior, Corian in Deluxe. The length of the kitchen depends on the size of the home.
Can I change package after the project has started?
The package is finalised before work starts. First comes the design of the home and the list of works, and that is when you decide what goes in and what does not. So when the project starts, you already know exactly what is included.
Are the windows replaced in every package?
Yes. All exterior windows are replaced with certified EUROPA thermal-break aluminium, whichever package you choose.
What warranty do the packages come with?
A three-year construction warranty with all three, together with third-party liability insurance for the project and a weekly progress report.
